This module shows only the values changed of an object on email, instead of all tracked values, even if it has track_visibility set as always.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 12.0This module changes how Odoo records field changes in the chatter: it only logs the values that actually changed, instead of showing all tracked values.
When a user edits a record that has fields tracked in the chatter (for example, a sales order or a project task), Odoo normally records the change and may also show the current values of other tracked fields, even if they did not change. This module modifies that behaviour so that only the fields whose values really changed are recorded and displayed in the chatter message.
The module works on the mail.thread model, which is the base used by many Odoo documents to add messages, followers and field tracking. It overrides the internal method that prepares the list of changes. For each tracked field, it compares the previous value with the new value. If they are different and at least one of them is not empty, it creates a tracking value entry. If nothing changed, no entry is created.
As a result, users see shorter and clearer change notifications in the chatter, showing only the fields that were actually modified. There are no new menus, buttons, reports or settings. The change applies automatically to all models that inherit from mail.thread and use field tracking.
